Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Smells like train tracks… and I’m shocked by my love for that scent of wood soaked in petroleum!!!
Powerful, elegant, and dark. At first, it felt like a challenge, but after a few wears, you get used to it. The dry down reminds me of Acqua di Parma Oud, and over time it becomes more woody with an elegant sweetness. It projects a lot, has great sillage, and long-lasting power, so I recommend just 3 or 4 sprays. On my skin, it lasts 12 hours with strong sillage for the first 4. I don’t seek compliments, but it feels great when someone tells you you smell good and this perfume delivers. 10/10 for scent, quality, and longevity. Cheers.
If you want to smell intense yet elegant, this is it. Incredible cardamomo, but the oud is even better—a barnyard scent with class. On my skin, it lasts a long time, about 7 hours and still intense; by hour 9, it starts to fade a bit. I’m obsessed; I don’t understand why so few people have reviewed this.
I expected it to be harder, since some rate it as the most ‘difficult’ in the line and others compare it to Voice of the Snake and Dark Lord… but no, it seems much friendlier, wearable, and commercial to me. I also expected more smoke, but it has it without being overpowering. It features the freshness of cardamomo, a warm embrace of woods, and a sweet touch that softens it. It exudes luxury and distinction, a quiet yet deep and mysterious power. Honestly, it’s hard not to fall under its spell. It smells amazing, though it seems less assertive, more domesticated, and unisex than I imagined.
